I believe this is a great day for advancement for Agoracom as well as all investors. The decision by the SEC to allow U.S. companies to use sites like Agoracom, Twitter, Facebook, etc to keep their investors better informed is a very good and strong communications for small companies, like ours. It also shows the importance of the message boards and how much these communicative channels mean to investors and all participants of the industry. Its plain to see in one of the links below, how much professionals rely on these forums for information,ideas, etc.

I believe in the future, SLI can openly inform investors on this board themselves, whereas in the past, I believe they were restricted from communicating with shareholders on these forums. This levels the playing feild a little in the small investors eyes as they can be as privy as the big guys to what may be occuring in the moment with any company. For example; if the dissident group wants to inform us directly, they should be able to post here directly any valid public information to shareholders as long as its specified.
